ODE TO RUTH WESTHEIMER 1928-2024 (DOCTOR RUTH)
Goodbye to "Doctor Ruth",
long were you in the tooth!
Sex guru from our youth.
you spoke of It the truth,
without being uncouth,
neither sounding aloof.

I was saddened to hear of her passing; she was before, my time, however, she left her mark upon the liberation of intimacy... Thank you for honoring her with your poetic ink spill.
Enjoy the remainder of your day, my wise poet.
Love and Hugs, always.

She lived in Manhattan, however, I was speaking in reference to her talk show.
